Maddy Herrin preaches a second message on having a missionary mindset, grounding her talk in Acts 1:4-8. She argues that the Great Commission begins where God places us - often locally - and that obedience to mission requires reliance on the Holy Spirit, not our own strength. Using personal illustrations (a cake‑pop moment) and two testimonies from church members, she shows how relational faithfulness and everyday conversations lead people to Jesus. Her closing challenge is that every believer has the Spirit's power to be a witness, so Nashville (and our neighborhoods) could look like heaven if we all lived on mission.
“"You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my Witnesses in Jerusalem and of all of Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the Earth."” · Maddy Herrin
Take it with you
Pray for boldness and intentional opportunities to share the gospel; expect that fruit may take years and be patient in relational investment. Remember the Holy Spirit enables and empowers witness - it's not by your might but by the Spirit. Combine your testimony with Scripture and keep looking for everyday moments (neighbors, coworkers, even Ubers) to speak life.

Who Is The Holy Spirit? - Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Acts 4 (contextualized in Acts 1-3) to show that the Holy Spirit is the empowering presence God gives believers so they can witness for Jesus. He contrasts human strategies and religious performance with supernatural power, arguing that the Spirit’s power always has a purpose: to produce public witness and advance the mission of making disciples.
God Loves Your Enemy | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin preaches from Luke 19 using the story of Zacchaeus to call Christians out of secrecy and into mission. He contrasts a "secret agent" faith with the biblical mandate to be visible witnesses, grounding that in Matthew 5, Matthew 28 and Acts 1.
Do Your Job | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin argues that work is part of God's good design - given before the Fall - and should be understood as worship, not punishment. He develops that idea by showing how the Hebrew word avoda links work and worship, urging Christians to do their jobs with excellence as an act of service to God.
